Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin’s offensive reputation has long stemmed from his teams’ ability to throw the football.
Whether it was Case Keenum at Houston, Johnny Manziel at A&M or the handful of quarterbacks who followed Manziel, passing yards usually haven’t been hard to come by on Sumlin-coached teams. Rarely, if ever, have his teams been widely known for running the football, fair or not.
This season, that seems destined to change.
Following Texas A&M’s 45-24 win over Arkansas on Saturday, the Aggie offense has established that, more than anything else, this is a group that can run the football.
